Short USB-C cable for nearby devices

This 50 cm USB 3.1 Gen 2 cable connects two USB-C ports at up to 10Gbps. It carries 4K 60Hz video and supports Thunderbolt 3 ports. The PVC jacket with aluminum-mylar foil and braid shielding protects signal integrity. Nickel-plated 24-pin connectors resist corrosion for reliable mating cycles.

Users needing a tidy link between adjacent gear

The short length suits a portable drive, dock or charger sitting next to a laptop. It reduces cable clutter on a desk or in a bag. Builders routing cables behind a motherboard tray or through a tight chassis should look for a longer cable. Anyone needing more than 50 cm of reach must choose a different length.

10Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 2 throughput

Data moves at up to 10Gbps, so large file transfers and 4K 60Hz video streams run at full rated speed. Slower USB 3.0 or 2.0 cables will bottleneck the same devices. Verify that both host and peripheral support USB 3.1 Gen 2 to use the full bandwidth.

Questions about this item

Will the 10Gbps link throttle on long transfers?

The cable is rated for USB 3.1 Gen 2 at 10Gbps and its aluminium-Mylar foil with braid shielding maintains signal integrity for the full 50 cm length.

Does the PVC jacket get warm or stiff when the cable carries full power all day?

The 50 cm PVC jacket stays flexible and the nickel-plated connectors run cool because the short run keeps resistive loss minimal.

Must both devices have USB-C 24-pin ports to use this cable?

Yes — each end is a USB Type-C 24-pin male plug, so both host and peripheral need a matching USB-C receptacle.
